First here are some Questions to understand What you want to get out
of this course. Also to understand more about you and what you already
know about Basic Film photography. This Class will be doing color and
Black and white. You as the student, besides the Class fee, will also
need a SLR Camera, Where you have Manual and automatic settings, and
TTL light metering. You wil be also in charge of buying and developing
your film, to turn in for assignments. As for Books, I will suggest
the ones that are most helpful, however if you feel you disagree or
already have it, then that is up to you as the student.

2003. This course will be teach the basics of photography, but will
touch on Filters, med and large format. This will be teaching local
students as well as online. (those online and local will get all the
help they need. I will be available online thru this group.)
Thru this class you will get a basic knowledge of photography and able
to take grea pics as well.. You will also get a Certificate of
